Penrhos Mountain Trail

3 miles

2 hours

200m climb

Starting from the Ty'n y Groes Car Park, this trail
offers a great experience of mountain walking, with breath
taking views of Cader Idris, y Garn an Rhobell Fawr once you
complete the strenuous march to the top.

You cover part of the King's Guards Trail while on this
walk, taking in the huge pillar that are Coed y Brenin's
Douglas firs, some of the tallest trees in the park.

After crossing a road, you follow the route up the
hillside through a colourful mixed woodland to the heather
and gorse-clad summit of Mynydd Penrhos.

The paths to the top of the mountains are made of an
uneven surface and are steep - but well worth it.
